Guest guest Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hi Everybody, Here's more information I received from Janee tonight. Janee does have a website called Alive One. It's www.aliveone.net Anyways, here's some info on Antioxidant Foods Create Lasting Youth. Have a good evening. TOPS Hugs, Janice from Ohio (KOPS) ANTIOXIDANT FOODS CREATE LASTING YOUTH Mineral-rich, nutrient dense beauty foods are nature's true fountain of youth. Raw antioxidant compounds and foods help delay or slow free radical damage to cells and tissues, and help preserve the look and feel of young skin. Here are beauty foods to mix into your meals containing high levels of antioxidant vitamins A, C, and E. Cruciferous vegetables, found in the mustard family, are our best source of vitamin A, Vitamin A protects the nucieus of each cell from radiation and thus protects the skin from sun damage. Arugula, nettle leaves, and watercress are popular sources of vitamin A. Janee said you can eat arugula and watercerss but she doesn't know about nettle leaves. Janee said carrots and squash also have vitamin A in them. Janee also said the more vitamin A you have in your system the less sunburn for you. Vitamin C is a collagen healer, helping the body to build new tissue. Radishes, papaya, ripe peppers (red ones), burdock root, acerola berries, and onions---which contain more vitamin C than oranges of the same size---are excellent sources of vitamin C. A papaya facial rub (find one that's is ripe) will also leave your complexion radiant and fresh! Janee mentioned products like Bert Bees, Avalon and Kiss My Face that has papaya in it. Vitamin E has been known to erase fine lines on the face, repair connective tissues, heal the circulatory system, and impart its soothing properties upon the digestive tract. Olives and olive oil (perhaps the greatest beautifying food of all), watercress, wheat germ oil, and the supplement Tocotrienols (the most potent form of antioxidant vitamin E available) will add a healthy dose of vitamin E to any meal. Janee said to start off with wheat germ oil and then wheat germ. Have a good evening. Janice from Twinsburg Ohio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
